Objective To investigate the safety and feasibility of totally laparoscopic radical resection of gallbladder cancer.Methods The retrospective cross-sectional descriptive study was adopted.The clinical data of 30 patients who underwent laparoscopic radical resection of gallbladder cancer at the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from January 2013 to August 2015 were collected.The patients received synchronous hepatic segmental or extrahepatic bile duct resection according to the conditions of patients,and choledochojejunostomy was applied to patients undergoing extrahepatic bile duct resection.The patients accepted postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy according to the results of postoperative pathological examination.Observation indicators included (1) operation situations,including surgical procedures,operation time,volume of intraoperative blood loss and number of lymph node dissected,(2) postoperative situations,including time for outoff-bed activity,time for diet intake,time of drainage tube removal,occurrence of complications and duration of hospital stay,(3) results of postoperative pathological examination,including tumor stage and surgical margin,(4) postoperative adjuvant treatment,(5) follow-up situation including the survival of patients,tumor recurrence and metastasis.The follow-up using outpatient examination and telephone interview was performed to detect the survival of patients and tumor recurrence and metastasis up to December 2015.Count data were represented as average (range).Results All the 30 patients underwent successful laparoscopic radical resection of gallbladder cancer combined with hepatic S4b and S5 resection + lymph node dissection at N1 region.Six patients with obstructive jaundice caused by tumor invaded to extrahepatic bile duct underwent combined laparoscopic extrahepatic bile duct resection + Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy,without perioperative death.The average operation time,average volume of intraoperative blood loss and average number of intraoperative lymph node dissected were 238 minutes (range,178-430 minutes),250 mL (range,200-600 mL) and 7 (range,4-15),respectively.(2) The patients got out-off-bed activity and normal diet intake at postoperative day 2,with a average time of drainage tube removal of 3 days (range,0-25 days) and an average duration of hospital stay of 5 days (range,3-28 days).Two patients with complications were cured by symptomatic treatment.(3) Results of postoperative pathological examination showed that all the patients received R0 resection,and pathological stage showed that 12 patients were detected in Ⅰ B stage,10 in Ⅱ stage,7 in ⅢA stage and 1 in ⅢB stage.(4) One patient in Ⅲ B stage (pT3N1 M0 stage) received gemcitabine + cisplatin chemotherapy and other patients didn't receive the adjuvant treatment.(5) All the patients were followed up for a median time of 16 months (range,4-32 months),without tumor recurrence and metastasis at Trocar puncture site.There were 25 patients with tumor-free survival and 5 patiens died of tumor recurrence.Conclusion Laparoscopic radical resection of gallbladder cancer is technically safe and feasible,with a satisfactory short-term outcome.

The NSP2 gene of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV)S1 strain was partly amplified and cloned into a prokaryotic expression vector pGEX-6P-1 and a fusion protein GST-tNSP2 with molecular weight of 50 kDa was expressed in E.coli. The purified GST-tNSP2 protein showed a strong reaction with the PRRSV-positive sera in Western blot assay. Balb/c mice were immunized with the purified protein, and the splenocytes of the immunized mice were fused with murine myeloma cells SP2/0. After subcloning by 3 times, two hybridoma clones which produced McAbs steadily were screened by ELISA, named 3H3 and 2B5. They all reacted strongly with the PRRSV S1 infected Marc-145 cells in IFA, but not with the PRRSV SY0608 strain. Both of the McAbs belong to IgG1 isotype, and their light chains belong ? type. The expressed GST-tNSP2 protein and McAbs could be used for identification of PRRSV isolates and functional analysis of NSP2.

In this paper, the action of suet oil in the preparation of self-assembled micelles of the active flavonoids in Epimedium in the simulated human environment was researched. Twelve suet oil samples were collected from different growing areas and different positions of sheep or goat to simulate the formation of micelles. Then the effects of the fatty acids in suet oil on the preparation of self-assembled micelles were studied furthermore. The results showed that the micelles had a dispersed state and spherical smooth surface. To compare the diameter, potential, encapsulation efficiency and drug loading of the 12 batches micelles, the micelles prepared by the suet oil from Qinghai were more stable and had a higher encapsulation efficiency. The fatty acids in suet oil could promote the formation of self-assembled micelles, but the whole suet oil had a better effect. Above all the study, we confirmed that the suet oil promoted the formation of self-assembled micelles of the flavonoids in Epimedium, it laid foundation for further research about increasing the efficacy of Epimedium and improved the absorption of the active flavonoids in Epimedium.

OBJECTIVETo determin the prognostic factors that influence survival in patients with osteosarcma.

METHODSThe clinical data of 43 patients with osteosarcoma between March 2005 and March 2007 were retrospectively reviewed. Patient's sex, age, tumor site, course of disease, serum alkaline phosphatase (AKP) level, preoperative chemotherapy, Enneking surgical stage, surgical method, distant metastasis were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier method, Log-rank test and COX regression model. Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate the 3-years survival rate, and Log-rank test was used to determin prognostic factors related with survival rate, and COX regression model was used to find the independent prognostic factors. The effect of neoadjuvant chemotherapy on the prognosis of osteosarcoma was analyzed by Fisher exact test.

RESULTSAll the patients were followed up. Twenty-eight patients were alive, while 15 patients were dead. The survival time ranged from 6 to 65 months with a median survival of 42 months. Overall 3-year survival rate was 65.1%. Univariate analysis revealed that the prognosis of osteosarcoma was significantly related to tumor site (P = 0.010), Enneking surgical stage (P = 0.002), surgical method (P = 0.000) and distant metastasis (P = 0.002). Multivariate analysis by COX regression model suggested Enneking surgical stage (P = 0.028),surgical method (P = 0.001) and distant metastasis (P = 0.007) were the independent prognostic factors. Though the preoperative chemotherapy was unrelated to the survival of osteosarcoma, the sensitivity to preoperative chemotherapy was an important factor that affected the prognosis of osteosarcoma (P = 0.007).

CONCLUSIONThe prognosis of osteosarcoma was significantly correlated with Enneking surgical stage, surgical method and distant metastasis, early detection and wide excision were interventional methods to improve the survival of osteosarcoma.
